AUGUSTA, Maine - Senior Darby Toth shattered the record for three-pointers in a game last Thursday when the point guard hit ten triples and scored 32 points as the University of Maine at Augusta women's basketball team thumped the University of Maine Machias 73-27 in Yankee Small College Conference play.
Toth (North Port, Fla.) nailed all of her three pointers in the first three-quarters to break the record of eight formerly held by current teammate Carmen Bragg (Washburn, Maine) and former standout Jennifer Lola.
Toth, who transferred from the University of Maine at Presque Isle for her senior campaign, was in incredible 10-14 from behind the arc and 11-15 from the floor in scoring the most points by an women's basketball player so far this season. She is off to an incredible start for head coach Jennifer Laney and ranks first in the nation in three-pointers, shooting 50% for the season through her first 10 games. The point guard is also leading the country in assists with 45 and ranks fourth in the nation in USCAA DII women's basketball, with 131 points, ranking just behind teammate Jamie Plummer.
UMA returns to action on Tuesday evening when the team hosts Southern Maine Community College at 6:00 in Yankee Small College Conference action.
